8 FIELD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 FIELD CLOSE sales from September 2008 and January 2013 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the September 2008 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
